Viscount Palmerston left town 3 esterday morning. The Earl of Tinto has arrived in Scotland.

The King returned to the Castle on Wednesday evening from town, attended by Sir Herbert Taylor, and escorted by party a of Life Guard's. .The u n f avoura b le state of the weather yester d ay prevente d their Majesties taking their usual drive. To -day the King and Queen have taken their usual airings, and the Duchess of Gloucester has left for town. The resi dence of the Royal Duchess in Bagsbot.park is undergoing repairs. WORCESTER FESTIVAL. THURSDAY EVENING..—The concert of last night attracted ;l a consider a bl y -i ncrease d aud i ence, or per h aps some o th er cause that had no reference to music, for it is quite clear that a large proportion of the auditors have no conception of thd musical excellen ce w hi c h i s h ere presente d to t h em, or en j oymen t i n !istorling to it. During the whole of Mozart's charming sin lonia in E flat, and especially during Mendelssohn's overture to the Midsummer Night's Dream, the room was divided into parties of talkers, and the more delicate movements, the lovely andante of the first, for instance, was buried under the ill-timed and vulgar noise of the audience—we say emphati cally vulgar, for a man who has no more perception of what is this in a r t th an t o s h u t hi s ears to such a composition as this would turn his back on the Belvedere Apollo. The evening concerts at these festivals are chiefly composed of such materials as best suit the fancy of the singers, who, of course, generally choose their most popular London songs. Thus Madam e Caradori sang, " Ah quando in regio talamo ;" and " The light of other days ;" and Braham his scena from Oberon. The first act finished with Cooke's beautiful scena, " The shades of the Heroes," but its performance was far inferior to that at Norwich. Hawkins's place was feebly supplied by Knyvett, and the voices in general wanted unity of combination. Mrs. Knyvett and Miss Novell° were alike unsuccessful in " Dove son," and " Sommo ciel ;" each was a regular display of English singing; and in the latter son,. B th e passages were not even correctly sung. Blagrove's a ccompaniment atoned in some measure for the singer's de fects. The trio from Azor and Zemira was given with great enrreetness and sweetness ; but it was not much relished by the audience, to whom a comic duet between Phillips and Braham, and " Jock of Hazledean," were infinitely more ac ceptable. This morning the attendance at the Cathedral was Much more numerous than yesterday, attracted by the reputa tion of Mozart's master work ; for Redemption, which produced such a sensation last week at Norwich, formed the prominent feature of this morning's performance. It wanted, on the pre sent occasion, the colossal grandeur of the Norwich chorus, but in no other respect did it suffer by comparison. The second act of the performance consisted of well-known telm and choruses, which call for no particular remark. THE LATE MADAME MALIBRAN. The Committee meet againon Thursday, and it is expected that th ey w ill g i ve to t h e public a report on the circumstances connected with Madame Malibran's illness and death. Several applications have been made at the Mosley Arms, by artists and others, to be allowed to take a sketch of the features, or to make a cast from the head and face of the de ceased —but it is almost needless to say that not one of these applications has been granted. The instructions of M. de Be riot in this respect have, we understand, been complied with to the letter. The body was placed in a leaden coffin on Sunday night, and about ten o'clock the following morning the lid was soldered down. The requisite preparations for the funeral are being made by the undertakers, Messrs. Satterfield and Co., under the direction of the Sub-Committee. We stated in a former number the strong reciprocal affec tion which De Beriot and his gifted wife manifested for each other during their short stay at Manchester. To these facts w e may add, that even when unable to speak to him, Madame Malibran frequently pressed his hands in hers, and turned her head on on one side that she might look upon him ; and we may further subjoin the testimony of the deceased's own declaration upon the subject. In the course of a conversa tion with Mrs. Richardson, at an early stage of her illness, she mentioned that she had known De Beriot nine years, and had been seven of that time married to him, but that she had not been able to make their marriage known till within the last two years—what circumstances had prevented its due publicity she did not say. She then added emphatically, "If he had any faults, I should have found them out before now ; but there never was such a man. I am certainly blessed with a most affectionate husband; and that, I am afraid, few can say in a similar situation to myself." We believe she had two children during this marriage, one a girl , died i n her infanc y ; and the oth er a boy, now about four years old, of whom she spoke to Mrs. Richardson, is residing, we believe, with his Paternal aunt, at an estate purchased by his father and mother in the neighbourhood of Brussels. M. de Beriot wrote to his sister after: his arrival at Manchester ; and we have heard, we k now not how truly, that it was his intention, without staying more than a few months in London, to proceed immediately to this estate to join her and his child. We think it right, in justice to all parties, to state that from the time of Dr. Bellomini's arrival, Drs. Hull and Bardiley, and Me. Worthington, who had attended Malibran up to that Peri o d, (at the request of the Festival Committee), ceased their visits. Amongst other groundless rumours to which we have al !pad), adverted, one tat was very rife was that Madame Ma libran was in the habit of taking wi ne or s p irits too freel y , and tnat it was to this cause, and not to any sudden faint ness from over exertion, that must be attributed what some are pleased to call her "sham" illness. We have, we trust, a prope r feeling of gratification in being enabled to give, on what we deer( good authority, the most unqualified con tradiction to this rumour, both as to the cause of the ill ness which has terminated so fatally, and as to the general habit so roundly charged upon the unfortunate deceased. So fa r from its being anything like. the truth, we arc a ssured that since her arrival here shs never (with one alight exception) tasted either spirits or wine ; and for this reason, that, in her own opinion, either the one or the other would have had an injurious effect upon her voice, her regimen for which, as we have already noticed, was a few 4z!sters and a small quantity of bottled porter, sometimes diluted with water. The report to which we have referred had been so industriously circulated, that by some means it r T eached t h e ears o f M a d ame Malibran herself, and it is need less to to say gave her no inconsiderable pain. She me n t i o ned Miss Novello, exclaiming indignantly, " To think, Miss vello, that they say I drink ! Oh, it is grievous I Wuat will they say next of me ?" Miss Novelle endeavoured to soothe her, saying, " Never mind, dear ; it is the envio us Spirit of inferior talent to depreciate those who excel." The e xceptio n t o w hi c h we have adverted occurred when, thirsty from th e fever, Madame Malibran asked Dr. Bardsley if she ? b i ght take a littl e c hampagne and water. The Doctor sa id e might, and she took a small quantity , which she s eemed to 11 i°Y, as being cool and refreshing . But so g reat was her ~13 Jection to spirits, that on one occasion, when a little was , rec ommended to her mixed with water, she abs olutel y refused to touch it. W e un derstand that Sir George Smart , wh en .t old t of this ru mou r, expressed himself in very strong te rms. " said he had known her intimately from her childhood, both t a priv ate lif e and i n her pu bli c pro f ess i ona l engagements, and Q was satisfied that the assertion as to her habits was destitute of the slightest foundation of truth. -HERN E BAY.—On Monday next, Octobers, there mill b e a grand Festival at the town of Herne Bay, on the reasion of laying the foundation stone of a clock tower of the ' ei ght of about eighty feet, which Mrs. ThWaytes is about to er e et at her own expense.

TUNBRIDGE WELLS, SEPT. 30.—Their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Kent and the Princess Victoria, attended by Lady Catherine Jenkinson, the Baroness Lebzen, Sir John Conroy and suite, passed through here this morning, about half-past 10 o'clock, from Buxsted-park, the seat of the Earl of Liverpool, en route to Ramsgate. They remained at Lady Conroy's, Wellington-place, about a quarter of an hour, the space in front of the mansion being thronged with re sidents of all classes, who were anxious to manifest every mark of respect towards the illustrious individuals who have so thoroughly endeared themselves to the inhabitants. Their Ro3al Highnesses looked remarkably well, and gracefully ac knowledged the respectful greeting offered to them„ This place continues remarkably full of the very first description of visitcrs, and, in addition to private concerts, we have had Mr. Mori and party, Messrs. Bochsa, Ole Bull and party, and a Signor Filippa, a pupil of Paganini. The concerts have beer, well attended, particularly Bochsa's.

" , .3 GENERAL COURT MARTIAL ON LIEUT. BELLAIRS, ROYAL MARINES. FINDING • AND SENTENCE OF . THE COURT, AND SUBSEQUENT DUEL BETWEEN THE PROSECUTOR AND PRISONER. The, Court having adjourned for the purpose of hearing Lieut. Wood, the prosecutor's reply, as snob as the respective members had taken their seats. the Court was much crowded, as on the former day by military and naval gentlemen. Captain VARI.O, the Acting Judge Advocate, stated that he had received a letter from the prisoner, requesting that Capt. Peebles, the officer of the g uard, might be called, as his evidence would prove that he (the prisoner) had made an apology or explanation, in his and the prosecutor's presence, on the evening of the 7th Sept., previous to the prosecutor leaving the guard-room. The Court decided upon examining Captain Peebles, after which The prosecutor rose to reply, which he did at very coniile rabic length, reiterating the principal topics comprised in hi: opening eloquent address, and concluded by insisting. that he had borne out by the evidence which he had adduced the charge he had made against the prisoner. The Comer having been cleared, proceeded to take into its consideration the testimony addu ce d f or and against the pri soner. The prisoner was found " G u il ty, " and the following a sentence l o v s b y passed ma u j i e )o st r which ha s b een subsequently fMajesty " That he, second Li e utena n t B e ll a i rs, had been proved guilty of the charges alleged . against him, being in breach of the Articles of War. the Court sentenced him to be dismissed his Majesty's service." Late on Thursday night the finding and sentence of the Court was made known to the prisoner, and after consulting with a friend he sent a message to the prosecutor, requiring that satisfaction which a gentleman ought to receive under the peculiar circumstances in which he was placed. The pro. secutor, without any hesitation, appointed a friend, and agreed to meet Mr. Bellairs the following (yesterday) morning. Between two and three o'clock yesterday Lieut. Wood, ac companied by Lieut. Miller, of the Royal Marines, crossed the water opposite the Arsenal, followed immediately by Mr. Bellairs, and -- Lamb, Esq., a naval officer. The ground having been measured, the principals took their position, and on the usual signal being given, Lieut. Wood received the fire of Mr. Bellairs, and returned it by firing in the air. The ball fired by Mr. Bellairs shattered a stick which had been placed as the pivot point at which his opponent was stationed —the latter thus narrowly escaped a serious injury. The parties then met and shook hands, and here this unpleasant affair for the present terminates. DINNER to MR. TRAILL at THURSO. On Thursday, the 15th instant, about fifty of the friends and supporters of George. Traill, Esq., gave him a public din ecr in M'Kay's hotel, in Thurso, as a mark of respect for his consistent and decided attachment to the cause of free institu tions. 'F. Sinclair, Esq., of Lybster, in the chair. After the usual toasts, &c., Mr. SINCLAIR gave—" Mr. Traill, and success to his efforts in the county." Mr. TRAILL returned thanks. He estimated highly the honour done to him, not so much as a personal compliment, as to his position as a candidate for their suffrages. On public grounds, he looked on it not only as evidence of their present feelings, but as an earnest of future exertions in a cause which involves the interests, and even the honour of the county. As a humble instrument, he would do all in his power to promote and maintain the independence of the county, and would devote his mind and heart to that object. He would say, that all he had ever said of the principles of the present Government had, he thought, been fully veri fied during► the last session of Parliament. All their mea sures had been of a liberal cast, though many of them had been strangled in the stronghold of the Aristocracy. In refusing Municipal Reform to Ireland, the Tory Lords only demonstrated their fear and hatred of public opinion. He considered the present state of the Irish Church as a blot on humanity, and there could be no peace nor prosperity while it so continued. The cry of the Church in danger had origi nated in the love of the Tories for its revenues, and to use it as a political engine. There is nothing spiritual in the mat ter—such an establishment can never convert Catholics to the Protestant faith. Mr. WILSON, Advocate, gave " Lord John Russell and the Liberal majority in the House of Commons," and after paying a compliment to the talent and principles of Lord John Russell, said, that it was to the constituency at large that Ministers must look for support, and he hoped they would soon have an opportunity of returning a largo majority to the House of Commons. Mr. CRAWFURD, Advocate, gave " Lord Mul,s-rave, and Peace to Ir e l an d." M r . C rawfurd, in eloquent terms, de picted the wrongs inflicted on Ireland, and described the healing measures offered by the present Government, and paid a warm tribute of admiration to the energy and excellent conduct of Lord Mulgrave.

Additional evidence is afforded by the arrivals to-day of the progress of agitation, and the growth of the numerous Asso ciations which are spreading throughout the whole breadth and length of Ireland, having for their object the attainment of justice, of equal rights and equal laws. The success of these associations has no parallel in the history of the country. The Catholic Association, powerful as it became, was whole years before it attained the commanding elevation and immense power which the General Association but in a few months only exhi bited. PRESENTATION of NEW SHERIFFS IN THE COURT OF EXCHEQUER. Yesterday, according to ancient custom, Meta.s. Duke and Johnson, the Sheriffs of London and Middlesex, were presented in the Court of Exchequer More the Cursitor Baron (G. Bankes, Esq.) fur his Majesty's approobation. The Court was exceedingly crowded. In consequence of the passing of the Act for abolishing oaths in certain cases, the customary form of swearing the Sheriffs, Under Sheriffs, and other officers, to render a true account to his Majesty of the receipts and emoluments of their respective offices, was dispensed with. The Cursitor Baron having taken his seat, The RECOEDER said, Mr. Baron Bankes, I have the honour to introduce to your Lordship James Duke, Esq., and John Johnson, .Esq., who have been unanimously elected by their fellow-citizens to fill the important office of Sheriff of London and Sheriff of Middlesex for the year ensuing, and to beseech his Majesty's inost gracious approbation of th e choice of his loyal subjects, the citizens of London. Mr. Sheriff Duke, my Lord, is a native of Montrose, and in early life entered the civil department of his Majesty's Navy. In 1809 he served his country under the command of Admiral Sir Peter Parker ; he subsequently served under the command of Sir Richard Keats, Sir John Jones, and Lord Exmouth, and took an active part in those brilliant achievements which distinguished the career of the illustrious names he had mentioned. On the return of peace, Mr. Duke directed his attention to commercial pursuits, and had since that period on a most • successful business con nected with the coal trade. With respect to his colleague (Mr. Johnson) he had been equally successful in commer cial pursuits, and had by industry, honesty, and integrity in business, amassed a splendid fortune. Mr. Johnson was the lessee of the celebrated Dartmoor Quarries—he was also distinguished by his skill in the erection of several bridges—in the construction of docks—and, above all, in superintending that stupendous structure, the Plymouth Breakwater. Mr. Johnson. however, disclaimed the merit of being the architect of his own fortune —h e succeeded to the business of his father, whose hop.ourable exertions obtained for himself and f am il y an alm os t unprecedente d career of success. Mr. Baron BANKES, in a comvdlimentary speech, congra tulated the new Sheriffs on the good fortune to be unani mously elected by the greuest city in the world to fill tho high and important office, of Sheriffs. The usual cereaway of chopping sticks, and counting six horse-shoes and? ,sixty-one hobnails, in virtue of which the Corporation bold certain estates, was then performed by Sir Chapmeal Marshal, the senior Alderman who has net passed, the Chair, and the Corporation retired. DISLODGMENT OF TENANTRY.—It would appear from the following report, copied from the Freemen, that Mr. T. French Vigors is following in the footsteps of the Orange landlords in Carlow, whose brutal exploits in depopulating their estates, has often formed the subject of our indignant comments. It will be seen that the tithe system in this instance, as in most of the evils which afflict and torture this unhappy country, h as i , close connection with the cruel conduct charged upon the in dividual in question. " Mr. Vigors (says the Freeman) holds considerable property in the towoland of Kells. The greater part, if not the entire of his tenantry, are tenants at will, and as such are exempt, under the provisions of Stanley's Bill, from the payment of tithe. Mr. Vigors, however, by the same Bill, is held accountable for the tithe composition, and having been threatened with an Exchequer process by the Dean of Leighlin, he paid the amoun t c h arge d aga i ns t his tenantry, and added the respective sums to their rent accounts. His tenantry, however, chose to demur to the payment of a tax of ss. an acre on the lands, for the support of a cle r gyman from whom they derived no ,benefit whatever ; and, in consequence of their refusal, Mr. Vigors has seen fit to serve his dependents with notice to quit. What are we to think of a gentleman pro fessing liberal opinions—of a man whose family owes so much to the honest and independent men of Carlow, and in the support of whom they have made so many sacrifices, who could even entertain the idea of turning no less than twenty-five fa milies from their holdings, and rendering one hundred and sixty human beings houseless wanderers through the world?" POOR-LAWS FOR IRELAND.—We lately took occasion to state that one of the first Ministerial measures of the next session would be a bill for the establishment of a system of Poor-laws in Ireland. On this subject we copy 'the following from a Tipperary Paper:—Mr. Nicholl, one of the Chief Commis sioners of the English Poor-law Board, visited the House of Industry and the Mendicity Institution in this town, on Sa turday last. We are informed by a gentleman who had a good deal of conversation with Mr. Nichol!, that he has come to Ireland at the desire of the Government, to ascertain, by per sonal obserVation and inquiry, what plan of a poor-law can be properly proposed for Ireland, and that he expressed much confidence that be should be able to suggest one that will be satisfactory. We are much gratified in learning- that the Go vernment is determined on introducing a measure or measures ,for the relief of our distressed, starving, and unemployed poor, a circumstance which will give them everlasting claims on the gratitude of the Irish people. , THE PRESBYTERIANS OF IRELAND.—It is a fact with whi c h we, have been long acquainted, but which has now become perfectly notorious to all men, that the Presbyterian body in Ireland is in a condition of the most woeful anarchy.

Yet he (Mr. Fry) liked not his policy with_ regard to tithes. He (O'Connell's) object was not to relieve the poor man from their payment, but to rivet them more strongly on him.—( No, no.) This was proved by his support of a measure that tended to transfer their payment from the clergyman to the landlord, and arm that landlord with the means of enforcin g his claim i n a more summary manner. No confidence should hc placed in that man whose object was not to relieve the poor Roman C4holic froth the payment of tithes to the Protestant clergyman, but to take tithes from the cler gyman and give them to the landlord.

TIIE CLIMATE OF THE CAPE.—III a recent letter from Sir John Herschel, full of astronomical investigations, the learned philosopher says—" You may form some idea of this climate, as regards clearness of sky, from what was told me by our professional Governor, Colonel Bell, viz., that out of 42 successive days he had been only three times disappointed in. finding Venus with the naked eye, in broad sunshine. At nine A. ht., I read with ease, a few nights ago, the most involved parts of a lady's closely-crossed letter by the light of an eclipsed moon, then near the zenith." On Tuesday a man, calling himself the Wi.idsitire youth, undertook to walk 14 miles in two hours; starting from the Market Cross, Shepton Mallet, going ono• mile out and returning. He accomplished his task, vita 131 minutes to spare, after which he collected about 2Zis . . —Bath Herald. GIPSEY CHRISTENING .-- During th e a ft ernoon service at the church of St. Mary Magdalen, in Taunton, on Sunday last, several gipsies, in their ordinary costume, walked down the aisle, one of the women carrying an infant in her arms, which she informed the sexton she had brought to be baptized. The sermon being over, a large portion of the congregation flocked round the font, where the child was christened by the name of Moses. The child had been • born on the preceding, Sunday, and the mother was present at the christening of it. Several ladies gave her money; and it being observed that it was a fine infant, one of the brown gos sips replied that it was what they called a male—the mother being a gipsey, and the father a house-man.—Ballt Herald.

ESCAPE PROM TIIE HULKS, tor A DESPERATE BURGLAR.--Yesterday information r,trs received at all the Po lice Offices and the various metrotw . litan police station s o f th e escape of John Allison, a most not...v . .ious and desperate burglar, from the .Institia hulk, \Voolwi cti i Arsenal, between three and four o'clock on Thursday afte..T,oon. He was seen safe with the gang to which he was a'..tiched at three o'clock, but on the convicts being mustered at four o'clock, he was no where to be forbid. How he efr.e cted his escape is at present a mys tery. The convict, WiAr, has been long known to the police by the names of John l !dason, alias John Skinner, alias Skin ner Mason, alias Ylason John Skinner, alias Roger, alias Splodger, alias F,pl as h et . (from his having remarkably long feet), is a most saesperate character, having on. several pre vious occasioni effected his escape from the custody of several officers, and. 'broken out of near a dozen watch-houses and houses of correction. On the Ibth of March last, he, in conipans 'with three companions, burglariously entered into the he ase of an aged man, named James Stachborry, at Stoke Lyr.n, near Fencott, in Oxfordshire, whom, after robbing of n , arly every thing liepossessed, they attempted to murder, but were frustrated in their diabolical design, when they effected their escape. Mason's three companions, were, however, shortly afterwards apprehended at Bicester, Oxon, and committed for trial at the Lent Assizes, when they were convicted, and sentenced to transportation for life. Mason, however, for a length of time, eluded the vigi lance of the police, although several rewards were offered for his apprehension (one of 201. being offered by Viscount chetwynde), (luring which time he was concerned in several extensive 6 1).1-glades committed in the neighbourhood of Ham mersmith, Kensington, Northend, Fulham, and various other places, 'out always effected his escape. He was, however, sub sequ'zntly apprehended by police constable Barns, of the B after a desperate struggle, at a public-house in Or chard -str ee t, Westminster ' after which he was conveyed, heavily ir one d, i n a car t t o Watford, and from thence to Bi cester. Previously to leaving the neighbourhood of town, the Watford constable allowed him to stop to see some of his friends (who all reside in the neighbourhood of Fulham), at the Star and Garter public-house, Kensington, when they were surrounded by about forty desperate characters ; and, on his getting into the cart, he struck the officer a violent blow with his handcuffs, and there is no doubt he would then have effected his escape, had not a party of the T division come up at the moment, and kept the mob back while the constables galloped oti their prisoner. At the last Oxford Assizes he was convicted and sentenced to eight years' labour in chains at the hulks, and at the expiration of that period to transpor tation for life. He is about twenty-two years of age, five feet six inches high, fresh c omp l ex i on and visage, stout made, with scars on the right side of his head, on the back of his left hand, and on the, second joint of his left thumb. He was dressed in the grey dress of the hulks, and had a pair of irons on one of his legs. An atrocious attempt at assassination took place near Birmingham on Tuesday last. On that day a cattle. fair was to be holden at Walsall, and Mr. Wheeler, a re spectable carcass-hotelier, residing in Skinner-street, left home before five o'clock in the morning, for the purpose of attending it. On reaching the Queen's Head, near Perry Bar, he observed a young man, respectably attired, whom he addressed as he passed, observing that he was up early. _Mr. Wheeler then proceeded on his journey, but he was over taken by the same person, who entered into conversation, and seemed to be very intelligent and pleasing in his manner. They walked together until they reached the fourth tnile_ stone, when Mr. Wheeler observed that his companion kept somewhat behind him. In an instant, however, unobserved. by Mr. Wheeler, the cowardly miscreant drew a pistol from: his breast, and discharged it at his head, the hall entering just below the c ar . The unfortunate man reeird a littl e , s b e u r t v e did t that tt his sll companion's the paa i a ground. at On a n sw uo turning 'bound he ob thrown op en at ad fired th e s h ot, and merder a th ,i e nd br th ea a s t t, ho an w d as t t h h e e p eo e n rs v o ie n ti w on ha a ' or. ce fl ashed upon his dtialantgehroisusrvuwrpoousned'evda,s and b A.vn and rob hi m .

Mr. Wheeler followed as well as hi:- could for :featly half a mile, when he was met by some butchers, who kindly placed him in a gig, and conveyed bins to the Swan in ,St. Martin's-lane, from which he was soon after conveyed to his home. An alarm was immediately given by persons at n o great distance from the spot, and a labouring man, who sa w t h e ruffian run off, pursued, and would in all probability have captured him, but that he was himself laid hold of, being mistaken for the person who committed the outrage; and the delay thus inadvertently occasioned, gave the ass ass i n t i me to escape. We are informed, however, that he was recogi;ised by one or two persons who met him on the road with Mr. Wheeler, a short time before the attempt was made upon his life, who have since come forward to give their testimony, and, in all probability, their information will lead, to his speedy apprehension,_,Birmingham Paper, Thursday.
